Petaluma Food, Fun & Trees!

by Amy SchwappachDecember 06, 2018

We feel so fortunate to have taken part in a couple of Petaluma's special holiday events this season.

First, we set up shop at the Petaluma Food & Fun Fair﻿ at the ﻿Hotel Petaluma﻿ hosted by ﻿Barber Cellars﻿ on November 19, 2018! It was a well-attended event with a variety of local artisans sharing their delicious fare. It was the Fair’s second year, but we were excited for it to be our first. It came with special meaning for us. Our Nonna (grandmother), Stella Rosa Carassali worked at the Hotel Petaluma during the 1970s. We attended St. Vincent’s Elementary School and walked to the Hotel Petaluma each day to meet Nonna who worked as a maid at the hotel. It was pretty cool to come full circle and set up shop at the hotel as a vendor. What a great tribute to our Nonna and what a transformation the hotel has made in recent years. It is quite literally the place to be.

Here we are getting ready for the event. Our samples included candy, crostini, biscotti, and cheeses with our lemon honey jelly and fig jam.

We were amazed with the turnout at the event and had such a great time sharing our products with new people. We can’t wait for next year.

We also participated in the Fabulous Women’s Festival of the Trees Marketplace on November 30and December 1, 2018. We were among eight other vendors selling their fares and had a great time. We met so many new people who enjoyed our samples and brought home our delights. We look forward to sharing all of our goodness with all of you soon!

Don't miss our UPCOMING events!

First, we will be having our Open Houses on Wednesday, December 12th and Thursday, December 13th at Amy's House - 10 Rumson Court - 6PM - 9PM. It is the perfect opportunity to sip wine, sample our products and get some of those holiday gifts out of the way. You will also find beautiful linens handcrafted by Natale for your holiday table or as a beautiful and thoughtful gift for someone you love. We look forward to seeing you.

We are also happy to take part in The Holiday Pop-Up Market at the Old Historic Bank in downtown Petaluma.
